House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) showed his ability to deliver presidential-level burns Thursday morning.

Some Republicans, infuriated by President Barack Obama's recent executive action on immigration, have reportedly floated the idea of denying President Barack Obama access to the House chamber for his 2015 State of the Union speech.

However, speaking at an unrelated press conference, Boehner directly shot down the proposal with a quip:

"The more the president talks about his ideas, the more unpopular he becomes. Why would I want to deprive him of that opportunity?"

Boehner quickly moved on to take his next question.
